It is December 5th, and the new Slipcased Deluxe Unfinished Tales is now officially available. I have ordered mine, though I expect it will take a week or so to get half-way around the world. Anyone else who gets one sooner, please post some comments or reviews here for the rest of us. Thanks!

I ordered a copy from "speedyhen" on eBay a couple of days ago, which was about GBP 40 including postage to NZ. I've used them before to get the Fall of Arthur Deluxe (for a bit less than 40 including post) and it came in 5 days, so can recommend them.

Here are some pictures that I snagged off an eBay auction. Like the others, it is "available for a limited time only". So presumably, that means "at least 9 years" (or "longer than pretty much any edition of any other book on the planet") if the Hobbit/LoTR are anything to go by :)
